sifting through the sounds of Paul's Boutique

Yeah, I know it's not current anymore, but who cares? "Classic" is the operative word for describing Paul's Boutique, the second major release from the Beastie Boys which soon became famous (infamous?) for the overboard sampling on just about every track. If you ever got down to "Shake Your Rump" or "Johnny Ryall," you'll want to bookmark the Paul's Boutique Samples and References page, which details--you guessed it--all the songs that were hijacked for this album, as well as all the arcane and not-so-arcane references with which each song is so liberally peppered. I bet you a chicken gizzard you'll find something here you didn't know before--so tune in, turn on, and have fun!
